Sue's Stampin' Designs

Christmas in July

    It seems we just get over all the Christmas festivities and before we know it, it's back again!  Don't get caught out at the last minute with trying to find Christmas cards and post them and hope they reach your family and friends on time.

    Why not make your own NOW and you will have enough time to send them off. It's Christmas in July time where lots of people are making their cards early so why not join in and have some fun while making your early Christmas cards and trying out our new stamps from our SU! Spring Mini Catalogue, which you can order from as from the 1st August, just around the corner by the way!...the years sure goes fast now a days.

    If you would like a Mini catty or if you would like to order from it through me, please by clicking this link below.

This link will show you my first Christmas card I made  My First Christmas Card and these pics are of another two I made last night...I will be making more and posting them as I make them.

This first card I CASEd from the 2008-2009 Catalogue and if you look on page 25 you'll find the card.

    The other card is just one that I made up myself, which I mostly do as I don't CASE them very often. (for those that don't know the meaning of   "CASE"  it is Copy And Share Everything!)

  I'll be back with more cards soon...

First Christmas Card

   Already in the seventh month and time sure is going so fast. Won't be long before Christmas catches up with all of us so I thought I'd better start making some Chrissy cards now!

    Here's my very first card to get ready for the Christmas rush. I'll have to start organizing some Chrissy workshops very soon too so others may get some done before the last minute.

With this card I've used Real Red, Certainly Celery and Whisper White cardstocks.

    I stamped the image 9 times on Whisper White cardstock and then I cut off  18 of the little flowers and cut them all out and then used  Stampin' Dementionals and layered them (twice) all on the originally stamped images for a 3D affect.

    I've highlighted the edges of the cardstocks with Real Red ink. Also I've used the Stampin' Write Markers to colour my stamps for all the flower .  The stamp set for the flowers is called "True Friend".

   

The Merry Christmas stamp is from the stamp set called "Occasional Greetings" which I stamped with "StazOn" ink.
    The ribbons used are Striped Grossgrain and the colours used are Real Red and Certainly Celery.
